Blacksburg - Cho Seung-Hui's medication speculation?

The New York Times reported that Cho Seung-Hui was taking a psychoactive medication.

What was he on?

Was it an antidepressant?

No doubt antidepressants save lives, but they also cause side effects. Psychiatrists know they trigger mania, exacerbate delusional thinking, and agitate suicidal tendencies. In short, they can push troubled people over the edge.

For obvious reasons, it's kinda hard to clinically research any link between antidepressants and shootings. But I'm certainly
not the first person to notice one. For example, the wife of comedian Phil Hartman was on Zoloft when she killed herself and him.

Most notoriously, Eric Harris of Columbine was on Luvox.

Hey Einstein, the reason why there's a much higher incidence of those things you listed above it's because...the demography that take these are already at higher risk! OMG I know! Amazing isn't it?

Yours is like saying ipeac syrup causes food poisoning. (moron... also you're really ugly)

As you are obviously a sub-retard cretin, I order you to remove yourself immediately from the gene pool. That's an order soldier! Failure to respond to this post within the next five days will result in your death at an undisclosed time and place.
